medium: Analog Video
art type: Video Performance
Jonas performs as herself and as her masked double, Organic Honey. She is dressed in a feathered headdress with a plaster-like mask and in a costume. Organic Honey is the embodiment of artifice, masquerade, and narcissism. Once Jonas puts on the mask she is now her ulter-ego who is disguised with a doll mask. The video also deals with self-examination as well as objectifying the female figure.
